   5     mke2fs: fix creating a file system image w/o a pre-existing file
   6
   7     The mke2fs program should allow creating a file system image when an
   8     explicit file system size is specified, even if the file doesn't yet
   9     exist.  By deferring the call to check_plausible() in commit
  10     942b00cb9d2f ("mke2fs: do not warn about a pre-existing partition
  11     table when using a non-zero offset") this behaviour was broken.
  12
  13     Fix this regression by explicitly creating the file if the file system
  14     size is specified.
